38 books finished in 2015: Career of Evil

love those detectives
don’t love serial killers
when’s the next one out?

What is this? Book 3? JK Rowling is crushing it with these, and this one ended with such a great cliffhanger. I immediately took to the internets and found out that 7 or so books are planned in this series. They’re playing out a lot like a slightly darker/grittier/scarier version of the Dorothy Sayers detective stories.

Darker/grittier/scarier: multiple chapters from the perspective of the murderer, who was SO CREEPY.
